thanks, divalent, appreciate your support.

Hurdle Crash is homo

Congrats on top 6.

You did two doctors while running and were still faster than this? That must have been a funny looking threesome.

My track team was much faster than this. I did two doctors.

The person running the last leg was faster than a cuban running from the cops after getting caught giving a BJ behind a dumpster.

Equa I love you. Come back to TN and love me long time. Our daughter misses you and sends her love. Even though she looks Mexican I promise she's yours and not Miguel's. I didn't cheat on you and love you. Almost as much as I love this video, that's why I'm voting for it everyday and sending Carlyle to the Olympics!!!

Come back TennNole

My Momma ain't crazy and I know my Daddy loves me. They fight because I'm so special. I went to the track one time and I ran, then I had a cup of tea and that was nice. I like tea.

hurdle crash is out of control...

I want to thank you Amber. My 14-year old son had terminal cancer. e only had a few months to live. After spending a quick 30 seconds with a laptop and your pictures, he's now cancer free.

equanole and i do indeed have a beautiful daughter together. She is the wonderful gift given to us from our moments of passionate love.

I do not have a daughter and sure as hell not with that crazy ass woman.

It's cold. Therefore, Global Warming does not exist.

Yes, OUR daughter will be!!!!

Does anyone know if TNNoleLady's daughter will be making an appearance in this video?

he's right. i posted bail though.

LR For life!

you base belong to us

Wow, thats crazy! I would have thought Chip and his movie would be the people to go to there lengths just for a few votes.

The makers of this video were arrested this morning on child pornography charges. Apparently, in an attempt to get more votes, they posted pictures of a 14-year old girl stripping on internet message boards. It is said that they forced her to strip on camera in exchange for Hannah Montana tickets.

Didn't think it was you "carlyle". I haven't seen your name anywhere doing that.

if your looking for a movie your in the wrong place, son.

this video makes me hope that there is some kind of voting limit or login required for round 2.

So lame. Its just footage. hardly a "movie"

this video makes me hope that there is some kind of voting limit or login required for round 2.

So lame. Its just footage. hardly a "movie"

we continue to vote.

we continue to vote.

I'll give 1546 some 5s if you do likewise

thanks for clarifying

Here we go again with people using my name. I don't find much humor in that. That last comment was not me.

You guys so lame, just let the best video win. Don't take it out on me and my family because we support each other. But I will send you a postcard from China if you'd like.

if you have given up i think itd be great if you got all your people to vote for 1546 just so that it can surpass that hurdle garbage...just an idea.

wow. at least I know the people who voted for me.

They just made a comment on their board (400 hurdles) that they were sending a memo out to 60,000 employees to vote for Brook's video. Totally Lame

I agree with the comment about 400 hurdles and when you really look at all the other videos on this website...this video pretty much has to be in the top 6 regardless of its position.

7th place. Out of it...

Its nice to see that all of the binge voting has stopped for this video, but whats even worse is that 400 hurdle video. By worse I mean about 100x worse. What can you do...

Good luck towards the end here

guess i'll resume the voting then.

looks like everyone figured out how to cheat but you.

I would pick McCain.

i would pick steeplechasers

i would pick steeplechasers

clever

you - 1
me - 0

you guys make me laugh, Carlyle Jones does not know he butt from a hole in the ground.

"The Locker Room is a very large room with many people of different backgrounds. We have the Vietcong, old chain smokers, a Hispanic lady with huge knockers, a psychologist, gold hoarders, lawyers, mac (sucks), Ron Paul fanatics, Fred Berry, and an izim. The only thing it doesn't have, is assets. Obviously this video doesn't deserve to win, but did FSU deserve Jeff Bowden?

This is only the beginning."

This guy speaks the truth!!!

hahahahaha. that's awesome.

is a very large room with many people of different backgrounds.

This is only the beginning.

This video is gonna win,withdraw your videos now and save your embarassment!!!!!!

Is clearly only one person who is speaking for himself trying to act like he is a group by saying "we". No one is truly going to constantly vote for this video if they think it it bad.

the 'locker room' comment should be enough to get this stupid video kicked out of this contest

well put

the isn't a clip of a race, its the whole thing. There are however clips of races that have received very large amount of votes so your point is still idiotic.

I hope this crappy video advances so that I can keep reading this stupid comments

I thought that most of these videos were gonna be like edited ones that ppl put together for a movie contest, not just clips of insignificant races

"Grow some balls and open you mouth, cuz i gotta take a piss."
You are a real class act, you know that right?

I have nothing to apologize for. Maybe the people posting fake comments should apologize!!

Looks like chip finally sobered up and apologized. Thank You!

This is the real Chip Andrews & I did not post that last comment!! I have not & will not bash any other videos!! I have respect for all those entered!! It seems those that did not enter or have nothing better to do get off on bashing all of us who have used our time wisely!!

Great race but poor image quality. Check out the video of my daughter in the 400 hurdle crash! Its nasty!

Best of Luck
Chip

We are currently working on some different voting systems. I cannot guarantee that the video I think is best will win or the one you like the most will but I am confident that the video the community thinks is best will win.

Floski

HOW are you going to guarentee that the best video will win? Will the public still vote in the final round?

Yeah so there has been a lot of commenting about this video. There are six videos from this group that make it to the final 10. The final 10 voting will be a little different and the best video will win.
Now can we turn it down with the comments..... I think constructive criticism is great but saying someone is gay....... Come on. If you think a comment should not be up just hit the red flag and if other people feel the same way and hit the flag the comment will be deleted.

Thanks,

Mark Flo

What a joke the contest is if this video goes to final

Big you definitely got called out on this one! Be proud and take that redshirt like a B1tch!

yeah i did redshirt indoor because of an ankle injury in early january.

yeah i did redshirt indoor because of an ankle injury in early january.

distance 4 life has to be alex young

distance 4life: Why do you say Nick is "stuck up" or a toolbag? and why do you say he has a bad reputation?

Again guys: SAVE IT FOR THE FINALS! Sheeze! SIX videos make it into the finals (along with 4 from the next round) for final voting which won't be until JUNE 2008!!!. Even you bashers here have to admit there ain't 6 other videos better than this (even if you have 2 or 3 that you think are better).
Let me put this in a way that might make sense: this is a semi-final round and the top 6 advance. Get it? 1st place or 6th place: you're in!

YOu make an excellant point, but also remember how far ahead (points wise) comeback is. If it wasn't for Nicks reputation I think this video would be still beating 1546.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how this video is in the top 3. Especially because of the fact of how many people have been on the board bashing it. Is it possible to cheat the 1 vote a day system? Cuz if it is this video is definetly a good canidate. Believe it or not I have run agaisnt Lovett and specifically Nick. I hate to beat a dead horse, but Nick is pretty stuck up and well... a toolbag. I wish that his bad reputation didn't have such a negitive impact on the rest of this 4x4 team. What shi#tty teamate. Honestly the video was subpar for me.

the biggest reason this video has received so many votes is due to its duration. Many people do not have the time (or attention span) to sit down and watch some of the videos people below me have listed.

You are retarded... "crushing high school times"?? I have run a 15:58 and have chosen to not run in college simply because I know Im not THAT good. 15:46 is a terrible time in college.

actually big didnt put up either video, the race or his signing. 2 of his team mates did. just stating a fact.

Nick did you redshirt indoor? I don't know how much money they gave you (cant be more than 25%)but your pr is only 48.23. So #1 stop using the number 47.7 (splits are bs) and #2 let us know if you ever compete on varsity or improve your times. You must be one hell of a prick to brag the way you do. You don't see coast to coast bragging about their accomplishment, they just want to share their experience with others. Same as 1546 and almost every other video out there. You are just too self-cented to realize that. Grow some balls and open you mouth, cuz i gotta take a piss.

Good Luck!

HAHAHA definetly is not kidding.

Check it out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EW376wgSkmo

dude you are a joke. you honestly put a video of yourself on youtube signing a letter of intent. how concieded are you? hahaha no this is not a joke, im not lying... type nick "big" green into youtube and there it is. the funny thing is i thought your race vid was the stupidest video on the internet but you topped it with this one! way to go nick "BIG" green! youre the man!!!!

this is pretty boring

actually i got a scholarship to a division 1, sec school called auburn. you might have heard of it.

Buch of Shzzy haters

Would you like me to find one by flotrack that is better then? They aren't a multi billion dollar corp. And how is it not about the video (ok seriously) I think it is a video competition. It is everything about the video. If it wasn't about the video maybe people could just send in some audio with their favorite warm up songs and possibly win the tickets to the Olympics. But since it is about the best video i think this video should be getting a lot of criticism.

I was there at the Georgia Olympics when this happened and the race was phenomonal. Stop all this talking about what the actual splits were because in order to win the race the last two legs would have needed an average of like 58 seconds and I think the last leg ran high 47.

alright people, i don't know what the HELL your problem is, at least the haters i mean. these guys are AMAZING track runners who ran an AMAZING comeback race. so what if it was filmed on a pocketsized camera? so what if it's not the best quality? last time i checked the prize of this competition was to go to the OLYMPICS as in a SPORTS event. it's not like these are being submitted to the sundance film festival. it's not about the video, it's about the TRACK. it's about athleticism people, real athletes doing great things. so stop being jealous and appreciate the effort of the runners, for the good of the sport. to the submitters of the video - good luck to you!

Jeeze, people! Show some class, eh? Or at least save your classlessness for the finals.
Here's a clue: the top 6 (SIX!) vote-getting videos here make it into the finals (where the voting starts all over again). If you look at the votes, and have viewed the others (or at least the top ten), you'll see where this is going, and y'all can come back in June for the finals.

could someone tell me how this video is getting all of the votes. if u wanna see a quality video check out coast to coast and u will see a well put together video

good advice. let me know if you want a post card.

Carly we know you used a 1 pocket sized camera blah blah blah, you are completely unprofessional and hopefully you and your video could take a hint, no one really understands why you have so many votes.. You seriously are giving your video a bad reputation, If you were confident in your video you wouldnt be talking back explaining yourself, the real vids are coast to caost, 1546?, and an actual revery seriously JUST STOP!!!

What you just posted is the BAYLOR 4x4 team in the NCAA national championships broadcasted by a NATIONAL tv station that spent millions on covering the meet. hahahah those aren't "voice over", son, those are professional commentators being payed 6 figure contracts by CBS...

I had 1 pocket sized camera and windows movie maker, and I'm supposed to be ashamed that a multi-billion dollar network put out better race coverage than i did............ hahahahaha

ridiculous voiceovers? here is a link of a well done 4x4. and ur movie has horrible editing. what did you use, the word paint pad and drew some arrows? check out this 4x4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPHOqCtraNU if you would have had something like this you would have a great reason to be voted for by other people

the effort is in the last 2 legs.
and the best part about the video is that there aren't any ridiculous voice-overs, it's just the race, and other 4x4's just don't compare to what is in this video.
and it actually is edited perfectly.

I watched your video and where is the effort? Honestly you guys put up a race video online for the contest and you guys have nothing but a short video of a 4x4. I can go to all of the flocast meet historys and find 20 heats of the 200 from this weekends BU indoor meet. This is not dif then them but without commentating and just some music. Come on guys you could have at least put some effort forth to make your video stand out at least besides have 2 fast legs at the end of a slow race. Not saying its not fun to watch. I am saying for those of you voting so much for this video. Its a shame that those other people that actually put effort and creativity into making their video are not getting the votes they deserve. If you want to watch fun 4x4 go watch fast d1 meets on the meet history section of flotrack, and keep the real videos for voting on.

Anyone can make a name that says "FloCast Staff", i just did!!

well said

I can't remember exactly where, but I think mark said on his uncut video that he was really excited about this contest. he talked about what type of video would win. he referenced the high quality professionally (very good amateur) editing that was going on. he said these were good but he also said that just an amazing race, captured spur of the moment, could also win. I can assure you cheating is not occuring on this video just A LOT of people voting for it. If you want 1546 or Coast to Coast (both excellent videos) to win VOTE for it and have your friends vote for it cause thats all that is happening on this video.

i just took your advice and watched 'steeplechasers' and it was sick! 6 points to that no doubt!

yeah i mean that was an amazing last leg but that steeplechasers video and some other ones seem like they must have taken forever to make and contain really good footage.

This is a great race. I am surprised by the amount of votes though jest for the fact that it is only a single race. Most of the the other well ranked videos are compilations of many races and training. Not to take anything away from the race because that comeback was amazing, but more effort was definetly put into other videos. If we wanted to send the person with the best race or split to the olympics, we could just look at a score sheet. I believe the focus of this contest is more on the artisitic side. Good Luck

jake, nobody here has bashed you... just the people who are talking crap about our video...

Just an FYI for those fixated on the overall time and the splits: this is the AA Ga State race. These are small schools (AAAAA is the largest division), not the big Atlanta metro high schools. If you are focused on the overall or split times, you are missing the point (of the competition, and the video). BTW, a number of good videos here. I liked 1546? also.

Ok this is Jake whos made 15:46? and I havent said one word about your video, so why dont you relax a little bit, come on man. I think you should concentrate more on running then writing dumb things on a comment board. Peace and good luck NICK

you mean like the cousins, aunts and uncles voting for your video? Seriously, give it a rest.

seriously, i feel like people who never watch track are voting, not sure what is so special. sure i am bias but still.

I took your advice and timed the race on youtube. You were close on your time but it definetly was not under 48.0 The final split for Nick Green came out to 48.34 (very respectable). Great race but it is hard for me as a 5a athlete to have compassion for a sub-par time. My vote will still be for coast to coast, 1546, and I may give you a point or two.

"i agree, this video makes my di*ck soft and small. It is Horribly filmed with a horrible video camera, horrible music" - weaksauce

This is just a video of a race that I filmed with the pocket sized digital camera I had with me. I didn't film it with the intention of making it stylistic or inspirational and submitting it to a contest, it just turned out to be a damn good race.

And I suggest you go to a different website if you're looking to get a hard on. If you were hoping to get one by watching men's track videos then you need to re-evaluate yourself.

I like this vid and I'm voting mid-range for it. I especially liked watching the first couple legs and seeing the effort of those guys to keep the team in the race. And yah, they dropped the hammer, like the title implied. Pretty remarkable and must have been a blast.
Can we tone down the venom a tad?
Peace

Whoever "47.7 lol" is, maybe instead of telling people online that you have a really big ****, you should just time the other three splits, and subtract it from the final time. That way you can know its a 47.7. Judging by the maturity level of your post, I would assume that you're probably not smart enough to figure something like that out.

Here's a link to the meet results, that should get you started... if you think you can handle it.
http://ga.milesplit.us/meets/20755/results/47641

oh and for you who doubted that he ran a 47.7, here's the unedited version so you can time it yourself.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=9mG-PJU5z9Y&feature=related

and those who bash the video because it's a slow time just don't understand the concept of athletic competition in general. all of the splits would be dreadfully slow to antonio mckay jr who would rape everyone on this website in a 400, but having the intellectual ability and athletic experience to understand how impressive the race was, he was the first to give the race its praise when the video was posted.

this video's not gonna be deleted because there's nothing illegitimate about the voting. at least nothing less legitimate than '1546' making a facebook event promoting it

http://fsu.facebook.com/event.php?eid=22098940525

Exciting race to watch. COAST TO COAST!

Ive Talked to Mark (The owner/operator of flotrack) and he is aware that this video has recieved illegeitmate votes possibly froma proxy server. It is only a matter of time until the video is deleted. Try to be honest next time.

wow how did you guys cheat to get all these votes? nobody can honestly like this video that much. have some integrity.... cheating sacks of sh*t

i agree, this video makes my di*ck soft and small. It is Horribly filmed with a horrible video camera, horrible music and it is a horrible time. 3:30?!?! I knew georgia was slow but not THAT slow. The worst part is you cant even time the last leg to see how fast it was. I dont think it was a 47 point, i think the other anchor just ran more like a 57. Honestly, ok race, but there was no effort put into making this video, and it was not sweet to watch at all. can everyone just please stop voting on it, its really not even on the same level as relay across america and 1546. Those are legit running videos and this is weaksauce.

Big your talkin out your poophole. I bet the reason you stopped the video 3 times in the last lap was so that viewers couldn't easy time your split. Georgia must be inferior in track and field to the rest of the country. In california you have to break 3:20 to get into the state meet. Winning times are usually 3:10 - 3:12. That is 5 seconds a lap faster per lap. There are distance runners who can run the mile by the themselves only a few seconds slower than your sprint relay. Grow some balls and admit that your video is one of the worst ever posted. Im oretty sure watching this made my ***** shrink 3-4 inches, granted I still got about 9 inches left after that.

distance runners are not superior to sprinters just because they run longer distances. that makes no sense. and the reason we had a slow time was because our first 2 legs ran a 54 and a 52. we're not voting on how fast people are, we're voting on how the videos posted reflect how awesome the sport of track and field really is. you don't have to run a 3:10 to have a good race. i came from 40 meters behind and ran a 47.7 to catch that guy, and that is what you are voting on. not how the cameraman didn't have a professional quality hd camera with like 100 x zoom and amazing editing. seriously? come on.

YOu make no sense, the video is dumb

Sometimes a race is so impressive in itself that it doesn't need voice overs of the runner reciting poetry.

And somewhere between starting track in lower school and earning a scholarship to a top SEC track program, I think hard work was PROBABLY involved. How about you think about that before you only praise distance runners for putting in hard work and determination.

I guess most people are mature enough to understand the insignificance of the time.

Good race, but slow time, Why does this video have so many votes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITs actually horible quality and horrile footage

its a great race, however a very slow time. I also do not understand why it has so many votes, its just one clip... no editing or thought involved. Think about it... who really deserves to go to the olympics. Now this is an ok clip, 1546 is the definition of hard work and determination, just as with MIT's run across the nation. Distance running revolves around the word work, Think aboutthat when you vote.

Family friend of Peter (3rd leg) and his family. Peter did not quit running to pursue boxing but rather just to focus on his studies in college.

this is amazing

i really hope italian stallion is coach finch. that would make my day.

Actually the last two legs were both on the team at Auburn, but the third leg, Peter, quit because of injuries and his desire to pursue boxing further...?

ballin'

as i previously stated it was a sweet race to watch... i love watchin people compete, but my all freshman team my freshman year of highschool ran 321, and got 3rd.... just stating the facts

Cody = most of America who enjoys videos but is too focused on time

shows the general trend that the track community now focuses on world records (time) at major running events rather then appreciating a race for the race (competition)

as seen many major meets and races are doing away with rabbits.

so even though it may be slower then another state, it should just be an awesome comeback.

cody, did you have bad christmas?

that was a sweet video... too bad the winning time wouldn't place at a majority of state meets throughout the US.... but like previously state a sweet video... good luck!

the winning time was 3:24
the third guy split 48 high and the final leg (Nick Green) split 47 mid
Nick's now running at Auburn

Do you have the splits?
Congratz awesome race

what was the winning time?

From Santa Barbara, Ca....Never give up!

That is a crazy comeback!
